GIVE FOR GOOD LOUISVILLE (2021)

We've all seen someone Homeless asking for money on the side of the road or near a restaurant. Maybe you gave what you could, or maybe you hesitated because you weren't sure of how the money would be spent. Either way, these kinds of experiences often leave us thinking
"I wish I could do more."

On September 17th, you have your opportunity to do more. HCSI is partnering with #GiveForGoodLou through the Community Foundation of Louisville, in order to open up donations on ONE DAY to fund our efforts in assisting those who are homeless, or are threatened with homelessness.

The Homeless Coalition of Southern Indiana seeks to build a community of collaboration. Through education, advocacy, and awareness, we want each member of the community to know they have a role to play.

We work with local government, organizations, businesses, and other volunteers to coordinate services to those homeless and at-risk.

Our power is in the strength of our relationships. Through collaboration and partnership with our community, we minimize the time an individual spends homeless.

Our coalition also sponsors the White Flag Emergency Shelter for men, women, and families during inclement weather. All communities members in need of a warm place to sleep are welcome.
